Overview
The Command Center is the central control hub for configuring how a chat behaves in Chief. It replaces the previous side panel system and consolidates all configuration, input, and behavior controls into a single unified interface.
It works together with Chat Scope, which provides a real-time summary of what is currently influencing the conversation.
